Cargotec wins order from Parsec for 200 terminal tractors

FINLAND's Cargotec has received contracts to supply 200 Kalmar terminal tractors to Parsec Inc, the intermodal division of Cincinnati-based O/B Leasing that operates at 30 sites in North America.

The units will come equipped with Cargotec's intermodal package which features a reinforced cab and frame needed to withstand the tough demands of an intermodal operation. The machines will be delivered by the end of the first quarter of 2011, a Cargotec statement said.

Over the past two decades, Parsec has ordered hundreds of Kalmar terminal tractors for its operations in the US, Canada and Mexico, said a Cargotec statement.

"As long-time customers of Kalmar terminal tractors for both on- and off-highway applications, we have been continuously satisfied with the performance of our machines," said David Budig, vice president of Parsec. "With emission regulations varying from region to region Cargotec has been able to equip our units with the latest technology while accommodating different engine and capacity requirements."
